FEATURES OF LEFT VENTRICULAR REMODELING OPTIONS IN MALE MIGRANTS OF THE FAR NORTH WITH ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION, DIFFERENT CONSTITUTIONAL TYPES

Abstract

Purpose. Study of left ventricular (LV) remodeling options in men, residents of the North with arterial hypertension (AG), various constitutional types who moved to permanent residence in Central Siberia. Materials and methods. The study involved 172 male AG patients. The main group included 86 men from the AG who had previously lived in the Far North. A standard anthropometric examination technique was used, followed by the definition of constitutional types, as well as the definition of geometric LV remodeling types from cardiac ultrasound data. Results. The data of the conducted study revealed the constitutional features of the incidence of adverse types of remodeling in men of the examined groups. Migrants with AG are characterized by a high frequency of eccentric LV hypertrophy in abdominal somatotype and a high frequency of concentric LV hypertrophy in muscular, while men with AG permanently living in Krasnoyarsk are characterized by a high frequency of concentric LV hypertrophy in abdominal somatotype and a high frequency of eccentric LV hypertrophy Conclusion. Adverse types of LV geometry among migrants of the Far North are more common in individuals with constitutional types characterized by high adipose tissue (abdominal somatotype) and muscle tissue (muscular somatotype).
